Hepatocyte nuclear factor 1α (HNF1α) is a transcription factor required for normal insulin secretion and maintenance of β-cell number in the pancreas. HNF1α is also expressed in pancreatic α-cells, but its role in these cells is unknown. The aim of this study was to clarify the role of HNF1α in α-cells. Male Hnf1a+/- mice with a mixed background were backcrossed to outbred ICR mice. Glucose tolerance, glucagon and insulin secretion, islet histology, and gene expression were investigated in ICR Hnf1a-/- and Hnf1a+/+ mice. Regulation
